Hi Paul,

There is no need to clone again for getting the updates. Using eclipse  
and its Egit plugin, you can update your current code base. In order  
to do this, right-click on the package explorer at the orekit project  
entry in the tree to get the context menu, and select Team->pull. This  
"pull" command fetches the new code from the repository and merge it  
with your currnt code. IF you have done local changes, the commands do  
its best to merge both your local changes and the remote changes that  
are fetched. If the same file has been changed around the same lines  
in both versions, the conflict is detected and a warning is displayed.  
If the local changes and the fetched changes are far away, Git merges  
everything smoothly. You can also run the fetch command from the  
command line if you prefer (running "git pull" in the orekit top  
directory).
best regards,
Luc

There have been no changes recently on the DSST part, so you may keep  
the current version you have if you want.
